This week we have another "Good Time Gary" story for you! You may remember him from an episode a while back, he was a notorious pilot in one airline who seems to have the most legendary stories that still get told to this day!

This story is no different, it's the true story about Gary getting up to his usual mischief in search of a good time, and ends up with 2 wanted, and then unwanted guests in his room that want more than his body... and they don't mind taking revenge when they can't get what they want!

Lots of Flight Attendants move on to different careers in the Emergency Services. The skills acquired in cabin crew training are transferable to the ambulance service, fire service and police.

But it's tricky giving up that lifestyle of travelling the world and having fun 5,000 miles away with like minded people.

Today's story comes from someone who is ex cabin crew, but married to a crew member, so they still get to engage in some layover shenanigans sometimes! But this story nearly led to an arrest and deportation - which might have affected his new career in the police!

Some cabin crew have a reputation, some are good reputations but some are not... There are a few of the "players" out there, straight male flight attendants who are spoiled for choice when it comes to layover lays! But if you're going to experience the life of the philandering flight attendant then you need to be honest, you need to be open and you need to be sexually healthy... Because a broken heart isn't the only health risk here...

One of the perks of flying is the free (well, you pay the tax) flights you get. And when you are a flight attendant or pilot, you can take someone with you on one of your layovers.

So what if you've just started dating a guy, he's hot but he's a bit of a grump... would you risk taking him on a trip? What if he causes a scene and you lose your concessionary travel tickets as punishment?!

On this weeks episode, we hear the true story of a grumpy companion, and the girl who finally has enough and pays it back!
